      memblock: free allocated memblock_reserved_regions later · 29f67386
      Yinghai Lu 提交于
      memblock_free_reserved_regions() calls memblock_free(), but
      memblock_free() would double reserved.regions too, so we could free the
      old range for reserved.regions.
      
      Also tj said there is another bug which could be related to this.
      
      | I don't think we're saving any noticeable
      | amount by doing this "free - give it to page allocator - reserve
      | again" dancing.  We should just allocate regions aligned to page
      | boundaries and free them later when memblock is no longer in use.
      
      in that case, when DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, will get panic:

      mm: sparse: fix usemap allocation above node descriptor section · 99ab7b19
      Yinghai Lu 提交于
      After commit f5bf18fa ("bootmem/sparsemem: remove limit constraint
      in alloc_bootmem_section"), usemap allocations may easily be placed
      outside the optimal section that holds the node descriptor, even if
      there is space available in that section.  This results in unnecessary
      hotplug dependencies that need to have the node unplugged before the
      section holding the usemap.
      
      The reason is that the bootmem allocator doesn't guarantee a linear
      search starting from the passed allocation goal but may start out at a
      much higher address absent an upper limit.
      
      Fix this by trying the allocation with the limit at the section end,
      then retry without if that fails.  This keeps the fix from f5bf18fa
      of not panicking if the allocation does not fit in the section, but
      still makes sure to try to stay within the section at first.

      memory hotplug: fix invalid memory access caused by stale kswapd pointer · d8adde17
      Jiang Liu 提交于
      kswapd_stop() is called to destroy the kswapd work thread when all memory
      of a NUMA node has been offlined.  But kswapd_stop() only terminates the
      work thread without resetting NODE_DATA(nid)->kswapd to NULL.  The stale
      pointer will prevent kswapd_run() from creating a new work thread when
      adding memory to the memory-less NUMA node again.  Eventually the stale
      pointer may cause invalid memory access.
      
      An example stack dump as below. It's reproduced with 2.6.32, but latest
      kernel has the same issue.

      timekeeping: Provide hrtimer update function · f6c06abf
      Thomas Gleixner 提交于
      To finally fix the infamous leap second issue and other race windows
      caused by functions which change the offsets between the various time
      bases (CLOCK_MONOTONIC, CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_BOOTTIME) we need a
      function which atomically gets the current monotonic time and updates
      the offsets of CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_BOOTTIME with minimalistic
      overhead. The previous patch which provides ktime_t offsets allows us
      to make this function almost as cheap as ktime_get() which is going to
      be replaced in hrtimer_interrupt().

      For fixing the widely reported leap seconds issue it is necessary to

      Provide a new function which denotes it in the hrtimer cpu base

      PCI: EHCI: fix crash during suspend on ASUS computers · dbf0e4c7
      Alan Stern 提交于
      Quite a few ASUS computers experience a nasty problem, related to the
      EHCI controllers, when going into system suspend.  It was observed
      that the problem didn't occur if the controllers were not put into the
      D3 power state before starting the suspend, and commit
      151b6128 (USB: EHCI: fix crash during
      suspend on ASUS computers) was created to do this.
      
      It turned out this approach messed up other computers that didn't have
      the problem -- it prevented USB wakeup from working.  Consequently
      commit c2fb8a3f (USB: add
      NO_D3_DURING_SLEEP flag and revert 151b6128) was merged; it
      reverted the earlier commit and added a whitelist of known good board
      names.
      
      Now we know the actual cause of the problem.  Thanks to AceLan Kao for
      tracking it down.
      
      According to him, an engineer at ASUS explained that some of their
      BIOSes contain a bug that was added in an attempt to work around a
      problem in early versions of Windows.  When the computer goes into S3
      suspend, the BIOS tries to verify that the EHCI controllers were first
      quiesced by the OS.  Nothing's wrong with this, but the BIOS does it
      by checking that the PCI COMMAND registers contain 0 without checking
      the controllers' power state.  If the register isn't 0, the BIOS
      assumes the controller needs to be quiesced and tries to do so.  This
      involves making various MMIO accesses to the controller, which don't
      work very well if the controller is already in D3.  The end result is
      a system hang or memory corruption.
      
      Since the value in the PCI COMMAND register doesn't matter once the
      controller has been suspended, and since the value will be restored
      anyway when the controller is resumed, we can work around the BIOS bug
      simply by setting the register to 0 during system suspend.  This patch
      (as1590) does so and also reverts the second commit mentioned above,
      which is now unnecessary.
      
      In theory we could do this for every PCI device.  However to avoid
      introducing new problems, the patch restricts itself to EHCI host
      controllers.
      
      Finally the affected systems can suspend with USB wakeup working
      properly.

      [SCSI] libsas: fix taskfile corruption in sas_ata_qc_fill_rtf · 6ef1b512
      Dan Williams 提交于
      fill_result_tf() grabs the taskfile flags from the originating qc which
      sas_ata_qc_fill_rtf() promptly overwrites.  The presence of an
      ata_taskfile in the sata_device makes it tempting to just copy the full
      contents in sas_ata_qc_fill_rtf().  However, libata really only wants
      the fis contents and expects the other portions of the taskfile to not
      be touched by ->qc_fill_rtf.  To that end store a fis buffer in the
      sata_device and use ata_tf_from_fis() like every other ->qc_fill_rtf()
      implementation.

      rpmsg: make sure inflight messages don't invoke just-removed callbacks · 15fd943a
      Ohad Ben-Cohen 提交于
      When inbound messages arrive, rpmsg core looks up their associated
      endpoint (by destination address) and then invokes their callback.
      
      We've made sure that endpoints will never be de-allocated after they
      were found by rpmsg core, but we also need to protect against the
      (rare) scenario where the rpmsg driver was just removed, and its
      callback function isn't available anymore.
      
      This is achieved by introducing a callback mutex, which must be taken
      before the callback is invoked, and, obviously, before it is removed.

      rpmsg: avoid premature deallocation of endpoints · 5a081caa
      Ohad Ben-Cohen 提交于
      When an inbound message arrives, the rpmsg core looks up its
      associated endpoint and invokes the registered callback.
      
      If a message arrives while its endpoint is being removed (because
      the rpmsg driver was removed, or a recovery of a remote processor
      has kicked in) we must ensure atomicity, i.e.:
      
      - Either the ept is removed before it is found
      
      or
      
      - The ept is found but will not be freed until the callback returns
      
      This is achieved by maintaining a per-ept reference count, which,
      when drops to zero, will trigger deallocation of the ept.
      
      With this in hand, it is now forbidden to directly deallocate
      epts once they have been added to the endpoints idr.

      sctp: be more restrictive in transport selection on bundled sacks · 4244854d
      Neil Horman 提交于
      It was noticed recently that when we send data on a transport, its possible that
      we might bundle a sack that arrived on a different transport.  While this isn't
      a major problem, it does go against the SHOULD requirement in section 6.4 of RFC
      2960:
      
       An endpoint SHOULD transmit reply chunks (e.g., SACK, HEARTBEAT ACK,
         etc.) to the same destination transport address from which it
         received the DATA or control chunk to which it is replying.  This
         rule should also be followed if the endpoint is bundling DATA chunks
         together with the reply chunk.
      
      This patch seeks to correct that.  It restricts the bundling of sack operations
      to only those transports which have moved the ctsn of the association forward
      since the last sack.  By doing this we guarantee that we only bundle outbound
      saks on a transport that has received a chunk since the last sack.  This brings
      us into stricter compliance with the RFC.
      
      Vlad had initially suggested that we strictly allow only sack bundling on the
      transport that last moved the ctsn forward.  While this makes sense, I was
      concerned that doing so prevented us from bundling in the case where we had
      received chunks that moved the ctsn on multiple transports.  In those cases, the
      RFC allows us to select any of the transports having received chunks to bundle
      the sack on.  so I've modified the approach to allow for that, by adding a state
      variable to each transport that tracks weather it has moved the ctsn since the
      last sack.  This I think keeps our behavior (and performance), close enough to
      our current profile that I think we can do this without a sysctl knob to
      enable/disable it.
